And chances are, Popeye will turn up in your casual reminisces oftener than you might now anticipate... our pets do loom surprisingly large in our memories, even if they seem to keep a quiet profile while they're with us.luannehttp://www.invisible woman.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9291442.post-67696994885036324612011-01-19T17:04:09.075-05:002011-01-19T17:04:09.075-05:00Melody.

I agree that as time passes you will find yourself smiling about some antics which suddenly remember. <br />At one time I had 7 cats and now have 2 and a greyhound. I still find myself remember some silly thing about each of them.janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10338339737871387437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9291442.post-82293722440074911462011-01-19T13:38:14.658-05:002011-01-19T13:38:14.658-05:00I'm looking forward to a "beachy" lo...I'm looking forward to a "beachy" look in your Mexican chalet in the mountains!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11509487491285800950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9291442.post-38369114742780402872011-01-19T13:09:14.935-05:002011-01-19T13:09:14.935-05:00I am so sorry to hear about Popeye.

I'm just an animal sucker. I could not get on your blog two days ago, it wouldn't load, and worked yesterday, so I'm just catching up. I'm glad you have Chumley and his antics to keep you both laughing. I can't imagine a life without pets. They keep us spiritual in a sense.<br />Judy Sebastianjudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18236241460360434106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9291442.post-86360514837041536372011-01-19T07:52:59.671-05:002011-01-19T07:52:59.671-05:00Do you have a pic posted somewhere of the seaglass...Do you have a pic posted somewhere of the seaglass color?

We are renting..and its killing me not to paint the walls...I think I will just say too bad! I can always paint over when or if we ever move. I wonder though, because I have so much color in my artwork and items in my home, especially on the walls ..if it should remain white walls so as to not conflict. I think I will just start with one room and see!

I know it was difficult to finally make that decision but you did it wih Popeye in mind. <br /><br />I don't look forward to that time with my 17 yr cat Stanza when it comes. I enjoy every day with her at this age and she gets the cuddles she now appears to want.(she was never much for tolerating affection). Even when she wants them in the middle of the night!<br /><br />I've been holding all of you close in my thoughts since I read your post yesterday.Louise in SW Saskatchewanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05650172312991490680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9291442.post-49178723020608388812011-01-18T10:57:44.919-05:002011-01-18T10:57:44.919-05:00Sorry about Popeye.
